Boner Candidate #1: LIMBAUGH SHOWS HIS TRUE COLORS
Rush Limbaugh will be evacuating South Florida, just days after the popular conservative radio host claimed that Hurricane Irma would not hit the United States and that scientists and the liberal media were hyping up the hurricane as proof of their global warming “lie.” “So there is a desire to advance this climate change agenda, and hurricanes are one of the fastest and best ways to do it. You can accomplish a lot just by creating fear and panic. You don’t need a hurricane to hit anywhere,” Limbaugh said on his show Tuesday. “All you need is to create the fear and panic accompanied by talk that climate change is causing hurricanes to become more frequent and bigger and more dangerous, and you create the panic, and it’s mission accomplished, agenda advanced.”
Boner Candidate #2: I’M A JUDGE AND I CLAIM “FINDERS KEEPERS”
A state court judge who reportedly found some jewelry in a Walmart parking lot, then became angry when a clerk wouldn’t give him a receipt for it, was arrested in Stafford County, Va., and charged with misdemeanor assault and battery. Jeffrey W. Parker, 65, is the chief circuit court judge in Fauquier County, Va., and also sits on the bench in Loudoun and Rappahannock counties. He has been on the bench since 2001. His lawyer, Robin C. Gulick, said Friday that he had no comment on the case, though he noted that it was Parker who called 911 and asked for police assistance.
Boner Candidate #3: THIS BONER FROM LAST WEEK IS WORSE THAN YOU THOUGHT
Smallwood, 16, already had been hit with the heaviest week of his career as an athlete and student. When I met him Thursday afternoon at football practice, I hoped that he already had endured the worst.They were full of grace and insight in their reaction to what has become probably the most notorious and widely shared photo in the history of this small southwest Iowa town, the seat of Union County. You know the photo I’m talking about: Five high school students and football players were pictured wearing white hoods that evoked the Ku Klux Klan. One brandished a gun. One held a Confederate flag. They stood next to a pathetic gnarly little burning cross. They look to be standing somewhere on a farm. He wanted to ask the five why they posed for the photo. Smallwood hadn’t yet gotten that chance. And then late Thursday, news spread that the threat of litigation might lead to the students’ reinstatement on the football team. Morrison late Thursday night told Register reporter Linh Ta that “lawyers are involved right now in the situation,” but his stance remained that they were off the team.
